It was one of the first sites I wrote for and it seemed to get some momentum but has not had any new content since July 2016.

Anyone know what happened? Does it make money passively now and not need new content or did it fail to make a profit?

I only ask because as a writer for a number of blogs, you never know what happens to the content you write and the sties you write for and I always wonder what happened.]]>6Hey Wordpress Companies – Don’t Forget About Your CustomersMon, 17 Jul 2017 17:03:29 +0000https://www.riseforums.com/threads/hey-wordpress-companies-%E2%80%93-don%E2%80%99t-forget-about-your-customers.3032/

So around 2 years or so ago, my personal site got hacked. It didn't technically, but the host at the time (which rhymes with Boast Gator), had some way of managing the VPS meaning that any site on the host was replicated throughout. In short, if you went to http://www.rhyswynne.co.uk/~somesite/, you would get somesite. Said somesite was hacked.

Which of these are you using in your niche and why?

I had made changes to a landing page with Thrive Content Builder, but they weren't showing up. Then when I came here to ask about it, as I was typing the question it occurred to me that I hadn't hit "update" from the regular editing page in WP. I tried it, and it worked! I'm so happy.

Or do any stores offer deep linking tools to make it easier to turn links on your site into affiliate links?

like, Kevin, you're still with Studiopress, right? I'm curious about why since I know you're really familiar with Divi, too. At least, I think you are.

And can I make my header look better easily with Divi?

And do you think it will be extremely time-consuming to re-set up my website? (I know you can't really know this, but just what do you all think...?)...
